Insulation Options

Open Cell vs. Closed Cell Spray Foam

Choosing the right spray foam insulation type is critical to getting the performance and value your project needs. Here's a clear breakdown of both options, no sales pitch, just facts.

💨

Open Cell Spray Foam Insulation

R-3.7 per Inch

Open cell spray foam is a soft, flexible foam that expands aggressively on application, filling every crack, gap, and void in your wall or ceiling cavity. It's the preferred choice for interior walls, interior attic decks, and sound-dampening applications where moisture barriers are handled separately.

  • R-3.7 per inch, excellent thermal performance for interior applications
  • Expands up to 100× to fill all air infiltration points completely
  • Reduces airborne noise and sound transfer between rooms
  • Lower cost per board foot, ideal for large interior projects
  • Breathable, allows moisture to pass (no vapor barrier function)
  • Ideal for: interior walls, interior attic decks, sound control

🔒

Closed Cell Spray Foam Insulation

R-7 per Inch

Closed cell spray foam is a dense, rigid foam with the highest R-value per inch available in spray foam insulation. It acts simultaneously as an air barrier, vapor barrier, and structural reinforcement. It's the foam of choice for attics, crawl spaces, exterior walls, rooflines, garages, and metal buildings.

  • R-7 per inch, highest R-value spray foam available
  • Built-in air barrier AND vapor barrier, moisture protection included
  • Adds structural rigidity to walls, roofs, and metal building panels
  • Does not sag, settle, or degrade over the life of the building
  • Ideal for attics, crawl spaces, exterior walls, garages, metal buildings
  • Qualifies for energy efficiency tax credits and utility rebates

Spray Foam, Answered

Frequently Asked Questions

These are the questions homeowners and business owners ask most. We've answered every one of them clearly and completely.

What is the difference between open-cell and closed-cell spray foam insulation?
Open-cell spray foam insulation is softer and more flexible, expanding aggressively to fill voids and delivering approximately R-3.7 per inch. It does not function as a vapor barrier and is more affordable, ideal for interior walls, interior attics, and sound dampening. Closed-cell spray foam insulation is dense and rigid, delivering approximately R-7 per inch. It functions simultaneously as an air barrier, vapor barrier, and structural reinforcement. Closed-cell is the preferred choice for attics, crawl spaces, exterior walls, garages, rooflines, and metal buildings where moisture resistance and maximum R-value matter most. Dan Owens will walk your building and tell you straight which foam fits your application, no charge, no pressure.
How much does spray foam insulation cost in the US?
Spray foam insulation cost in the US typically ranges from $1.00 to $2.00 per square foot for open-cell foam and $1.50 to $3.50 per square foot for closed-cell foam, including materials and professional installation. Total project costs depend on the area being insulated (attic, crawl space, walls, garage, roof), the foam thickness required to achieve your target R-value, any existing insulation removal needed, and your geographic market. In central Iowa, Owens Spray Foam Pros provides free, no-obligation quotes with transparent, itemized pricing. Call (515) 738-3836 for your exact price.
Is spray foam insulation worth it for a home?
Yes, spray foam insulation is widely considered the most effective insulation investment available for U.S. homes. Unlike fiberglass batts or blown-in insulation, spray foam creates a continuous, seamless air barrier that eliminates the air infiltration responsible for most home energy loss. Most homeowners see a 20–40% reduction in heating and cooling costs after spray foam installation, recovering the full investment through energy savings within 3–5 years. Additional benefits include improved indoor air quality (fewer airborne allergens), reduced moisture infiltration and mold risk, soundproofing, and a building envelope that never sags, settles, or degrades over time.
How long does spray foam insulation last?
Properly installed spray foam insulation is a permanent solution designed to last the life of the building, typically 80 years or more. Unlike fiberglass batts that compress and settle, or blown-in insulation that shifts over time and loses R-value, spray foam bonds directly to the structure and maintains its insulating and air-sealing performance indefinitely. The key condition is protection from prolonged UV exposure, which can degrade the foam surface over time, attic, crawl space, wall, and enclosed applications are not affected by UV.
What areas of a home benefit most from spray foam insulation?
The highest-impact areas for spray foam insulation in a U.S. home are: (1) The attic, where up to 25% of home heat loss occurs through the ceiling and roof assembly. Spray foam on the underside of the roof deck creates a fully conditioned attic space. (2) Crawl spaces and rim joists, cold, moisture-prone areas where open air infiltration causes cold floors and increased humidity. (3) Exterior walls, especially in older homes where fiberglass batts have compressed or settled. (4) Garages, particularly when attached to the home, where unconditioned air migrates into living spaces. (5) Rooflines, pole barns, and metal buildings, where closed-cell foam controls condensation, adds R-value, and reinforces the structure.
How do I find a reliable spray foam insulation contractor near me?
When searching for a spray foam insulation contractor near you, look for these key indicators of a trustworthy provider: (1) Licensed and fully insured, ask to see proof before any work begins. (2) Manufacturer certified, certified installers have completed training on the specific products they install. (3) Owner-operated or owner-involved, businesses where the owner is on every job tend to produce higher-quality work. (4) Verified reviews, check Google, Yelp, and the BBB for consistent positive feedback. (5) Free on-site assessment, reputable foam insulation contractors provide a free quote after assessing your specific building, not over the phone without seeing it. (6) Transparent pricing, your quote should include foam type, coverage area, thickness, and total price with no hidden fees. In central Iowa, Owens Spray Foam Pros meets every one of these criteria. Call (515) 738-3836 for a free quote.
